#938 closed defect (fixed)

there are insufficient docs for using FUSE

Reported by: zooko Owned by: marlowe
Priority: major Milestone: soon
Component: documentation Version: 1.6.0
Keywords: docs fuse install packaging Cc:
Launchpad Bug:

Description

Or perhaps if docs do exist they are not linked from an appropriate starting location. Here is how I know: 

<Guest50815> the announcement on fuse-dev claims that read-only fuse works in
	     1.6.  Is there any text anywhere on how to use it?	        [11:15]

<Guest50815> python contrib/fuse/impl_c/blackmatch.py --alias=shared
	     /srv/media/tahoe					        [11:38]
<Guest50815> the missing piece was that I had to do a "python setup.py
	     install" -- a build wasn't enough
<zooko> Guest50815: :-)						        [11:41]
<zooko> How did you figure it out?
<zooko> Ah you guessed that you needed to install?
<zooko> How did you learn to execute "blackmatch.py"? Is there doc about that?
<Guest50815> trial and error, reading the sourcecode		        [11:42]
<zooko> Ah.

Probably we should advise people looking into FUSE to use SFTP+sshfs.

  • Owner changed from somebody to marlowe

I think this ticket should be closed due to the existence of docs/frontends/FTP-and-SFTP.rst​. However, I'm going to leave the final determination of that up to marlowe. Please close or update this ticket as appropriate.
